there is a black plastic box (shoe box size)behind one of the headlights next to the edge of the fender. the lid may be attached with clips that un snap or screws, this box will be at the end of a rubber tube about baseball size. you may have to unplug the MAF sensor or the air temp sensor to have enuff clearence to remove the filter (make sure the key is off when you do this) Good Luck

I have trouble putting gas in the tank - it acts like it is full and pops out and I can only get a little in at a time. 4 Answers

It seems like something is blocking and not allowing the gas to continue flowing into the tank. Could it be the air tube? Is this expensive?

I have a 2004 Mercury Mountaineer, V8, AWD, My problem, I think is in the computer? When I shut the engine off and try yo exit and lock the vehicle, setting the factory alarm system it won't do it. The digital display says that there is a "DOOR AJAR". I have checked all the doors as bet I can and they appear closed. BUT the interior lights remain on and the alarm will not set because off the ajar message. Am I missing something? Is the computer having a brain cramp.? I can get the alarm to set if I manually shut off the interior/dash lights too off. then it will work but no interior lights on the dash. This is driving me nuts. Can uou help?Thanks,John 12 Answers
